Uploading Theme To Wordpress and Get 413 Request Entity Too Large

nginx.conf <br>add/increase client_max_body_size in the nginx configuration file http area/section: <br>http { <br>client_max_body_size 32m; <br>(other lines will also be here) <br>} <br> <br>reference: <br>http://wiki.nginx.org/HttpCoreModule#client_max_body_size <br> <br> <br>php.ini <br>Check and/or increase the following: <br>upload_max_filesize = 32M <br>post_max_size = 32M <br> <br>Optionally increase: <br>max_execution_time =300 <br>max_input_time=300 <br>memory_limit =128M <br> <br>Restart nginx or your server for the changes to take effect after applying changes. The default client_max_body_size is 1 megabyte so most likely your theme is larger than 1 mb and you need to increase it to an amount larger than the size of the theme you are trying to install. <br> <br>Otherwise, you could most likely upload your theme by ftp instead if it’s available. <br> <br>Additionally you can set the above examples to suit your needs.

One thing that got me initially when the suggested changes didn’t work, was that in addition to restarting nginx, I also had to restart php-fpm as well before I was able to successfully upload files to Wordpress.

“# service php-fpm restart”

For anyone having trouble locating the php.ini file, mine was located at /etc/php/7.0/fpm/php.ini. Placing a php.ini file in the /wp-admin folder did not work for me. I also ended up rebooting the server after I made changes to php.ini, then the new upload limit worked perfectly.

If you’re using vim, you need to press Escape, type <code>:wq</code>, and press Enter to save a file.

I want to ask you i add line in server but when i go to save file with ctrl x i am unable to save ,can u tell me how to save nginx conf file? <br>vim /etc/nginx/nginx.conf.
